Further, the revenue from the first one can pay for the next unit, and so on, which is why they are marketed as "modules." Investors in utilities like the idea of step-wise capital spending at a conservative scale relative to market valuation and ramping up a commitment to nuclear energy in stages rather than 1,000 MW at a time.
Key milestones for success by SMR vendors are securing investors to complete their technology, jumping through the NRC's licensing hoops, and booking that all important first customer. SMR developers see themselves primarily as vendors, and not as nuclear reactor utility operators. However, some may wind up in a hybrid role to get their first sale on the books.
What works for refrigerators does not work for reactors
In the old days of American manufacturing process, the first-of-a-kind unit was called a "prototype." As is the case in any product development cycle, the vendor has to prove that the product will work as claimed to meet the needs of the customer. This means building one, or several units, and getting the mechanical gremlins worked out before committing to factory production.
In the case of SMRs, one option is building a first-of-a-kind unit at a customer site with a cost share agreement. Having a slice of the $452 million in DOE money recently announced will help, but only one or two firms will get a seat at the table. For the rest, other arrangements are needed to drive a path to success.
Prototypes at Savannah River Site?
This is where the Savannah River Site (SRS), a Department of Energy site, comes in. Tom Sanders, Associate Laboratory Director for SRS, told FCW he is developing the capability at SRS to host first-of-a-kind commercial development of SMRs of all types for power generation and process heat applications. He welcomes both LWR and fast reactor developers.
|Tom Sanders, Ph.D.
Associate Lab Director, SRS
Sanders, a former president of the American Nuclear Society, headed up its Special Committee on Small Nuclear Reactors in 2009-2011. His vision for SRS as an enterprise, and for SMRs, is that "it is an opportunity to rebuild American exports."
Additionally, he says that without export of nuclear technology, the U.S. will lose negotiation leverage on nonproliferation issues.
Is anyone from the SMR world listening?
There is interest in SRS. Denver based Hyperion Power, which is developing a 25 MW fast reactor that will uses a metallic uranium fuel and will be cooled by a liquid lead bismuth mix, has established a memorandum of understanding with SRS. Forrest Rudin, VP for Business Operations, says that with the design 90% complete the firm is looking for new investors, a customer, and a place to build one.
Hyperion CEO Robert Prince declined, for competitive reasons, to provide any more details of the firm's thoughts about building its first unit at SRS or anywhere else.
GE-Hitachi (GEH) is also tentatively interested in the SRS site. Michael Tetuan, a spokesman for the firm's effort to build a 300 MW fast reactor called PRISM, told FCW the SRS site "is attractive because of its infrastructure and trained workforce."
He added that the PRISM reactor is designed to burn plutonium which Tetuan says "makes it a candidate for the Department of Energy's plutonium disposition program."
DOE is currently building a MOX fuel plant in nearby Aiken, SC, to process 34 tonnes of weapons grade plutonium and turn it into the equivalent of 1700 PWR MOX fuel assemblies.
However, according to NNSA, the DOE organization responsible for the MOX plant, plutonium disposition will eventually involve "hundreds of tonnes" of the material. NNSA says on its website that "denying access to plutonium and HEU is the best way to prevent nuclear proliferation among rogue states and terrorist organizations."
GEH has also proposed the PRISM reactor for similar use by the U.K. Nuclear Decommissioning Authority (NDA) which has a similar mission of plutonium disposition and for the same reasons as NNSA. It's possible PRISM's prospects are better on the other side of the pond.
U.K. climate change chief science adviser David MacKay called the GE PRISM reactor "a very elegant idea." A spokesman for the NDA is quoted as saying that the earlier report in the Guardian that the agency had rejected the PRISM proposal "is completely without foundation."
Light water reactor developer NuScale has a toe in the water in terms of interest about SRS, but has made no commitments. Bruce Landry, VP for Marketing, told FCW his firm is talking to SRS.
"We are providing guidance on what is required to develop an SMR project on the site."
General Atomics challenges TerraPower's design
|GA plans to deliver the RPV for its SMR by truck
Parmentola says the EM2 SMR works along the same lines as the 1000 MW TerraPower's Traveling Wave reactor, "except that there is no shuffling of fuel elements." Also, The General Atomics design is one-fourth the size of the TerraPower 1000 MW concept.
He says the innovative fast reactor design uses 12% enriched uranium to start the fission process with depleted uranium or spent fuel at the core. The reactor breeds outward creating PU-239 over a 30-year period. Neutron reflectors and a proprietary geometry complete the design. Additional challenges include new materials for fuel cladding and remote handling tools for managing the core for fuel change out.
The objective, Parmentola says, is to produce an SMR that can produce electricity at $0.06/Kw. He added that General Atomics will likely have to build eight units for customers before the costs get down to the point where power is produced at the target rate. And he says that his firm isn't alone in that scenario. Everyone, even the LWR guys, will have issues with ramping up manufacturing of reactor components, getting the fuel right, as well as issues surround materials, licensing, and public acceptance.
Parmentola says some of the LWR competitors will have initial costs of electricity generated of $0.10/Kw, but he also notes that everyone in the SMR business will have start-up costs higher than natural gas. Getting on par with natural gas on price and speeding up construction in terms of time to market are the two competitive advantages of SMRs Parmentola says his firm has as its targets for success with customers. The faster an SMR reactor design can get into revenue service, the more likely a customer will order one.
Whether he would build the first unit at SRS, or anywhere else, isn't nearly so important as getting the cost curve down to the right price for electricity by the eighth. What Parmentola and his competitors might really be looking is a way to get the cost curve down to giving gas a run for its money by the second or third unit.
Here are a few highlights of the Obama administration's financial plans for nuclear energy R&D. The 2012 figure is the amount appropriated by Congress for the current fiscal year that ends next October and the 2013 figure is the amount requested by the President.
- SMR licensing support is cut by $2 million from $67 million in 2012 to $65 million in 2013.
- Advanced reactor R&D and development is slashed by $41 million from $115 million in 2012 to $74 million in 2013.
- Fuel cycle R&D is nicked $9 million down from $186 million in 2012 to $175 million in 2013. Of this amount $60 million is allocated to implement recommendations of the Blue Ribbon Commission.
It is a presidential election year with the entire House and one-third of the Senate up for a vote. Also, many incumbents are mindful of the fact that public approval ratings for congress in general are in the single digits making a "throw the bums out" spirit stronger than usual.
The turmoil surrounding decisions about federal funding will be more intense than usual and that means nothing should be taken for granted - especially the numbers in the President's budget. Competition for nuclear R&D dollars is way down the priority list for a deficit minded Congress that yet seeks to prove to voters they matter for something.
How get more juice for SMRs?
They might also show how the value and jobs linked to supply chains for units costing $400-to-800 million add to the economic mix.
In the House Rep. Mike Simpson (R-Idaho) sits on the House Appropriations Committee, which could support advocacy for the NGNP and SMRs in general, but no representatives from South Carolina also serve on the committee.
That said Idaho National Laboratory Director John Grossenbacher has noted that the first unit of the NGNP is not likely to be built in Idaho, but rather at a customer site possibly under a cost share agreement with the government. No site has been selected and it is too early in the development cycle to speculate on one.
An industry consortium that includes some petrochemical firms interested in process heat applications, called the NGNP Alliance was pivotal last year in boosting federal funding for the NGNP line item.
There's a better opportunity for funding support for SMRs at SRS on the Senate side where South Carolina's Lindsey Graham, a Republican, sits on the Senate Appropriations subcommittee on Energy & Water. His role there could be pivotal in supporting SRS lab director Tom Sanders' vision for the site and the likelihood prototype or full scale SMRs would be built there.
As to whether he'll use his influence depends on the answer to the question he undoubted posed to SRS management which is, "who else besides you thinks this is a good idea?"
Right now there definitely are a few hands in the air. Will be oars in the water as well? That remains to be seen.

The Wii isn't exactly overflowing with fighting games right now, but it's seen a couple promising titles with Dragon Ball Z and Mortal Kombat Armageddon. Game Factory has added another entry to the genre, with a licensed game based off of the animated show
Legend of the Dragon
. The one-on-one fighter replicates the animated look of the show and has all the basic fighter mechanics, but isn't really remarkable in any other way.
Legend of the Dragon
works a lot like most other fighters you've probably played. You choose from a number of characters from the show, and face off against an opponent using various attacks and combos. A and B are the only attack buttons, which is rather limiting for a fighter; Z and C on the Nunchuk are used to strafe back and forth, which are functions better suited to the control stick. The number of combos is sufficient, but could have been richer with a better control layout.
Z and C are also used to activate the game's main special feature, the transformation powers of each character. When their Zen bar is high enough each character can morph into a spirit-powered alter ego. The Zen bar has enough power after only a few successful attacks, which is good because that means both fighters are usually evenly matched. In other words, a non-transformed fighter stands little chance against the super attacks of a morphed fighter, which sometimes unbalances the combat.
Once morphed, both fighters have access to super moves, which are activated with D-pad combos. These feel less like true techniques and more like minigames, because they switch the controls over to Wii remote gestures. These minigames involve following onscreen movements to repel or execute an attack, or swinging the remote and Nunchuk in a cliché power-blast face-off seen in so many animes. The only other move that uses the motion control is the grab, which is slow and difficult to execute.
The attacks, super or otherwise, are mostly the same for all characters, which makes the fighters seem even more uniform. The individual characters, based off of the TV show, have different fighting styles but their combos and attack power have very little variety. Thus, there really isn't a whole lot of thought in choosing a fighter and playing them against the abilities of the others. This is ultimately what robs Legend of the Dragon of a fighting game's most crucial element—strategy between the different character types. These stale and monotone gameplay mechanics hinder almost every aspect of the game.
There are several modes to choose from, both single and multiplayer. Quest mode is a simple story based succession of fights that play out across a map, and is playable as one of two main characters. The battles get progressively harder as you move further into the quest, but because there is little opportunity for strategy, sometimes sheer luck wins them. I quickly grew frustrated after losing fights that were stacked against my character, unless I did precisely what the game wanted, which wasn't very clear most of the time. If
found the battles annoying, I think the TV show's younger fans will have even less patience.
There are also the standard quick play, practice and vs. modes, all which suffer from the same mediocre mechanics. I played a few rounds of multiplayer with a friend, and while it was entertaining for a while, there really wasn't much to keep us interested. Throwing the special attacks back and forth got old when we realized there wasn't much to it—there wasn't the satisfaction of pulling off a really awesome combo or getting a surprise ring-out.
The production values didn't do much to enhance the experience. The graphics are cel-shaded to emulate the look of the show, but the polygon counts are pretty low for a Wii title and most of the textures are very muddy. The arenas have the same cardboard-cutout appearance as the characters, and while there is some destructible scenery to liven up the fights, there isn't much more to give the arenas personality. The problem again is a serious lack of variety, and in the end it doesn't matter much where you choose to do battle.
The music is all pretty generic and Asian/anime themed and I never felt that it added a whole lot to the mood. There were times that I wanted an amped-up soundtrack to accompany a lively multiplayer fight, but the same few bland tunes kept looping in the background. The voice work was also very disappointing. Most of the voiceovers were typical grunts and shouts, but there was so much repetition that it just got annoying. The voices themselves sounded weak and uncomfortable; the barely audible taunts and creepy snickers uttered by the characters were unprofessional to say the least. I seriously doubt any of the TV show talent signed for the game.
At the start of the GameCube's life, Legend of the Dragon might have been a passable fighting game, but one generation later it just doesn't hold up to the other titles on the market. The game isn't terrible or non-functional, but most everything about it has been done much better. Although it runs at a budget price, I can't recommend a purchase, even for fans of the show. A quick rent might suffice, but this game won't keep you entertained very long.

Age of Empires III Performance Issues
Hi! I have a Macbook Pro 15" 2009 model with the 9600 Nvidia graphics card and bought the Age of Empires III Complete Edition off the Steam sale during the holidays. When starting up the game on Bootcamp, I noticed that it doesn't perform as optimally as I had hoped for... especially for a game that came out like 3-4 years BEFORE my laptop.
Initially, I had a map scroll stuttering issue which I fixed by going windowed mode and lowering the shader setting slightly. Also, turning on Vertical Sync helped limit the stuttering. But I noticed in sea battles consisting of 3-4 ships as well as medium-sized land battles, I get a noticeable framerate drop. While I do realize that AoEIII was, in its time, a graphics-heavy game, I just can't help but feel a bit embarrassed to see my laptop struggle to play this game smoothly.
Is this all my laptop can pull out?

My nephew plays AoE3 on his C2D 13" MBP and never raises any complaints. The only times we experience slow down is once all colonies are almost maxed and a huge battle breaks out on the map.

Special Notices
Types of sliding glass patio pet doors
The most common are "General Purpose" models intended to adapt to virtually any sliding glass door. They normally come in a variety of sizes and may be "spring-loaded" for easy put-in and take-out or they may be toe-nailed in your track. The "spring-loads" are the most popular and common.
In recent years vinyl framed sliding glass doors have become much more common and there are patio pet doors designed specifically for that situation. We suggest starting with these and then moving to a general purpose type if there is some feature missing or if it doesn't seem to meet your needs.
Finally, there are a few magnetic-operated or motorized panels that may be used to control access. Your pet may come and go but intruders are kept out. You might also want this type if you're trying to let the dog out but keep a cat or other animal in.
Important considerations
There are three that are most important:
In choosing a patio pet door it is vital to know that your track height is in the adjustment range of the door you have chosen.
Secondly, you must be sure that the flap size and step-over is appropriate for your pet.
Finally you need to be sure that you'll have room to walk out yourself if you have a pet patio panel in place! If not, and you'd still like to use your patio door, take a look at the through the glass category page.
As well, there are quite a few other details that might be important for you to think about in purchasing any panel pet door. Begin with key points to get a quick overview of the most important issues. Then study the comparison chart and read the information on the patio panel FAQ page which covers the fine points of patio pet doors.
Important note
These patio pet doors aren't only for dogs. In fact, they may be a better choice for cats than the ones intended specifically for cats! The reason is that each manufacturer generally offers a "Small" size and the flaps are all flexible and, therefore, safer than rigid "cat flaps".

Rated 4 out of 5 by 344 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by antzona Great Tribeca Hotel My ten year old niece and I had a fantastic stay here from April 12th - 16th, 2014. I got a great deal from Hotwire, but they still treated us very well. They gave us access to the club lounge and free Internet. The staff was super friendly and always went out of their way to help us out and make sure our stay was perfect. The lobby area was modern yet comfortable. There was a convenient pod of computers near the front desk and bar. We loved the club lounge. They had complimentary breakfast in the morning and snacks and beverages in the evening. There were absolutely beautiful views of the city from the rooftop lounge. I always love staying downtown in NYC, and the Sheraton Tribeca was no different. You can't beat the proximity to Chinatown, Little Italy, and the Village. You also have an easy walk to three different subway stations on Canal Street. I will definitely stay here again in the future... 2014/04/17
Rated 5 out of 5 by mmm24 Our first time in NYC Everything was great. I felt clean and comfortable and well taken care of. The location was perfect also.However, the lounge for the preferred guests seemed understaffed. The staff couldn't keep up with refiling breakfast items, juices, and teas. There was always somebody waiting for something. The coffee machine up there was not working well either. 2014/04/17
Rated 5 out of 5 by Gary1917 thankyou This hotel is in a great location, right on Canal St.. The best thing about it is not the location but the staff who are one & all Excellent!!!!!! 2014/03/15
Rated 5 out of 5 by AngelicaLA Courteous Staff I have stayed at this propery for several weeks for business travel. Most of the staff members have been extremely courteous to me during my stay. The praise for these employees has been long over due. James for always greeting me when I pass the front desk and helping me with whatever questions I have. David for always saying hi and greeting me with a big smile. He also always offers to get me a cab. Fery for greeting me with a big smile and always helping me with directions to a restaurant I am looking for. Lee for helping me at the front desk with a smile. Nicole for helping me at the front desk with a smile. The guys near the storage room for always being extremely helpful is storing my bags. I need to learn their names. 2014/03/13

Actually we heard of Dr. Carson years ago, have read his books and there is a movie based on his life, ´´Gifted Hands.´´ ...The lsm is once again late in catching up, proving yet again the near total disconnect between beteen the dems,´ ´PC Gotham,´ media and the real world. The dem pols and their media seem to live in another world.

As long as Rove´s Do-Nothing Republican party controls the Primary process, Carson can´t get a nomination for President.Only a Tea Party based Republican Party would have the courage to nominate him.

If conservatives want to criticize the left for their infatuation with stars who have no political experience (Ashley Judd, Sen. Frankel, Obama) then we must insist that something more than the flavor of the month is needed for nationally important offices. So as successful as Dr. Carson has been in his field - it can´t be enough to justify our throwing his hat in the ring for a run to the most important position in the world.

Do we have so many great candidates we can dismiss Carson summarily? Particularly, do we have so many great black candidates? Carson is an extraordinarily intelligent man. Something that cannot be said for Obama.

Although Dr. Carson has no political experience, look where career politicians have taken us. It would depend on who he selected as his advisors. I agree that Carson would need to be vetted before getting behind him, but we´d be crazy to dismiss him for lack of political experience. He has what most elected officials don´t have and that´s experience in the real world, the world the vast majority of Americans have to live and survive in.

Would it be too much to ask what his positions on the issues are before we elect him Sun King? Sorry, I´m old fashioned.

Reagan was just an actor. Barry a community organizer. An honest, patriotic neurosurgeon? I´ll take my chances if he is so inclined. I don´t what these mysterious qualities are that someone has to have to run for office. Honesty and an understanding of our founding and the constitution pretty much do it for me.

If a person has the right ideals,his policies would reflect that. Everybody knows Obama wasn´t qualified but his ideals,as misguided as they are won over enough idiots in this country to win.I don´t think there´s enough level headed people left in this country to look at someone like Carson and be able to project where he would take the country. But the left is scared of him and that´s why they´re sniping already.People expect the political class to come up with nominees.it would take a huge grassroots movement to get Carson through.

Dr. Carson´s positions on some important issues:Health care reform and personal responsibility:When a person is born, give him a birth certificate, an electronic medical record and a health savings account, to which money can be contributed, pre-tax from the time you are born, to the time you die... Now they have some control over their own health care and what do you think they're going to do? They're going to learn very quickly how to be responsible.Tax reform:...there must be something inherently fair about proportionality. You make $10 Billion dollars you put in a Billion. You make $10 you put in $1...Equlity, Compassion, Education:If we commit ourselves to reading, thus increasing our knowledge, only God limits how far we can go in this world.andBeing a doctor at Johns Hopkins does not make me any better in God´s sight than the individual who has not had the opportunity to gain such an education but who still works hard.andIt does not matter where we come from or what we look like. If we recognize our abilities, are willing to learn and to use what we know in helping others, we will always have a place in the world.Education:We have dumbed things down to that level and the reason that is so dangerous is because the people who founded this Nation said that our system of government was designed for a well-informed and educated populace, and when they become less informed, they become vulnerable.cont.

cont.Constitutional principles:PC is dangerous. Because, you see, in this country one of the founding principles was freedom of thought and freedom of expression.Fiscal and moral responsibility:Moral decay, fiscal irresponsibility. They[Rome] destroyed themselves. If you don't think that can happen to America, you get out your books and you start reading, but you know, we can fix it.Refocusing politics:We need all those people involved in government, not just lawyers… so you got all these Democrat lawyers, and you got all these Republican lawyers and their sides want to win. We need to get rid of that. What we need to start thinking about is, how do we solve problems?Transparency/Honesty:Tell the truth. If you tell the truth all the time you don´t have to worry three months down the line about what you said three months earlier. Truth is always the truth. You won´t have to complicate your life by trying to cover up.The three AM phone call:Success is determined not by whether or not you face obstacles, but by your reaction to them.And, one everyone here has been talking about lately,Unity:At this critical time in our nation´s history, we must remember that ´a house divided against itself cannot stand´. If we learn from the past, we can stand tall in the future.

Reagan was NOT just an actor. He headed a large union, SEG, and was governor of the largest state in the union before he ran for the presidency.

Three big cheers for #12-13, it´s almost as if some frequent posters do not read the articles on Lucianne. The story of Ben Carson has been posted and enjoyed by Lucianne fans since the first inspirational words flowed from Dr. Carson´s lips at the Prayer Breakfast.The article was basically fair, except for the twisted logic that only Conservatives wish to save money and enroll in a sensible health care plan like the one offered by health-savings accounts. Bias is bone deep with the Leftists.

If you´re a doctor you may have heard of him? Where have these people been for the last 20 years or so? Maybe they´re too busy memorizing movie start bios.

Los Boysby Junot Díaz
Junot Díaz hizo su entrada en la escena literaria con esta colección de diez relatos que se desplazan de los barrios de la República Dominicana a los suburbios de Nueva Jersey. Díaz, que según Newsweek combina «la mirada objetiva de un periodista con el verbo de un poeta», evoca un mundo del que han desaparecido los padres, en el que las madres luchan con determinación por sus hijos, y en el que los más jóvenes heredan la crueldad y el avispado humor de unas vidas determinadas por la pobreza y la incertidumbre. Pocas veces un autor publica un primer libro precedido por el reconocimiento unánime de la crítica.
The Brief Wondrous Life Of Oscar Waoby Junot Díaz
This is the long-awaited first novel from one of the most original and memorable writers working today. Things have never been easy for Oscar, a sweet but disastrously overweight, lovesick Dominican ghetto nerd. From his home in New Jersey, where he lives with his old-world mother and rebellious sister, Oscar dreams of becoming the Dominican J. R. R. Tolkien and, most of all, of finding love. But he may never get what he wants, thanks to the Fuku -the curse that has haunted the Oscar's family for generations, dooming them to prison, torture, tragic accidents, and, above all, ill-starred love. Oscar, still waiting for his first kiss, is just its most recent victim.
Drownby Junot Díaz
With ten stories that move from the barrios of the Dominican Republic to the struggling urban communities of New Jersey, Junot Díaz makes his remarkable debut. In "Ysrael", two brothers hunt a disfigured boy who hides behind a mask; in "No Face", the mirror is flipped and perspective belongs to the tormented. In "Fiesta, 1980", a spirited family gathering plays against the noiseless hum of a father's infidelities. In "Boyfriend", a young man eavesdrops on the woman next door and colors in the life overheard with the drama born of intense longing. And always, it seems there is the throb of waiting: in "Aguantando", for the fulfillment of a promise; in "Negocios", for rescue; in "Aurora", for respite; in "Drown", for resolution.
Fiesta, 1980by Junot Díaz
Junot Díaz, considerado uno de los jóvenes talentos de la narrativa estadounidense, hizo su entrada en el mundo literario en 1996 con una colección de diez relatos publicada en España como Los boys. En ellos, el que más tarde sería Premio Pulitzer de Novela, evoca un mundo de chicos sin padres, sostenidos hasta la extenuación por sus madres, que sobreviven a la pobreza y la incertidumbre con grandes dosis de crueldad y humor. Fiesta, 1980, es uno de esos relatos.
La maravillosa vida breve de Óscar Waoby Junot Díaz
La vida nunca ha sido fácil para Oscar Wao, un dominicano dulce, obeso y desastroso que vive con su madre y su hermana en un gueto de Nueva Jersey. Oscar sueña con convertirse en un J.R.R. Tolkien dominicano y, por encima de todo, sueña con encontrar el amor de su vida. Pero puede que nunca alcance sus metas debido a una extraña maldición. Después del éxito internacional de Los boys, Junot Díaz recrea, con humor, la experiencia de los dominicanos en Estados Unidos y la capacidad de perseverar en medio del desengaño amoroso y la pérdida.
This Is How You Lose Herby Junot Díaz
Pulitzer Prize-winner Junot Díaz's first book, Drown, established him as a major new writer with "the dispassionate eye of a journalist and the tongue of a poet" (Newsweek). His first novel,The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao, was named #1 Fiction Book of the Year" by Time magazine and spent more than 100 weeks on the New York Times bestseller list, establishing itself - with more than a million copies in print - as a modern classic. In addition to the Pulitzer, Díaz has won a host of major awards and prizes, including the National Book Critic's Circle Award, the PEN/Malamud Award, the PEN/O. Henry Prize, the Dayton Literary Peace Prize, and the Anisfield-Wolf Award. Now Díaz turns his remarkable talent to the haunting, impossible power of love - obsessive love, illicit love, fading love, maternal love. On a beach in the Dominican Republic, a doomed relationship flounders. In the heat of a hospital laundry room in New Jersey, a woman does her lover's washing and thinks about his wife. In Boston, a man buys his love child, his only son, a first baseball bat and glove. At the heart of these stories is the irrepressible, irresistible Yunior, a young hardhead whose longing for love is equaled only by his recklessness--and by the extraordinary women he loves and loses: artistic Alma; the aging Miss Lora; Magdalena, who thinks all Dominican men are cheaters; and the love of his life, whose heartbreak ultimately becomes his own. In prose that is endlessly energetic, inventive, tender, and funny, the stories in This Is How You Lose Her lay bare the infinite longing and inevitable weakness of the human heart. They remind us that passion always triumphs over experience, and that "the half-life of love is forever. "

"The Boys" #72 from Garth Ennis and Darick Robertson, with a little Richard P. Clark, brings the entire run to a close in a simple way with some deeper meaning.
Full review here.
"Bad product."
I thought it was a great finale. Unabashedly sentimental, but still with a little bit of that trademark nastiness.
Expletive Deleted
Wasa little bit hesitatnt reading a Boys issue on the train today , but the whole issue was fantastic.
If you can look past the X-rated'ed ness of it all The Boys is oen of the best series of teh last 15 years.
Great art & great story.
I'm assuming that cover gallery included variants, because I have every issue but didn't recognize all the covers.
Pull List; seems to be too long to fit in my sig...
I enjoyed it but I have to agree that I expected a little more from the last issue. Great series. I'll miss it.
Do you guys recommend this series? I was thinking of jumping on until I found out that it ended. Might be able to find them on ebay for cheap.
The series went a bit too long - 90 issues with the three minis, which was too much by about 30 IMO. However it will remain one of my favourite Ennis titles* for the parts that managed to struck home, and they were quite a few.
From the review:
giving Hughie the easy happiness he hasn't earned
I think he definitely has, and don't see how this happiness was "easy" after all he went through, but eh... opinions vary.
And I do agree that Russ Braun replaced Darick Robertson in a great way, to the point that I started to like his renditions of the characters more that Robertson's - much to my surprise.
*well, after his Punisher MAX, his war comics, The Pro one-shot and Preacher
Last edited by passer-by; 11-20-2012 at 05:12 AM.
I agree, I don't know what else Hughie would have to do to "earn" his happiness. He figured out what Butcher was up to, saving lives; he protected the Legion of Super-Heroes knockoffs from a real creep; he proved himself worthy of Annie; he grew up and is hardly in the same place he was in when his first girlfriend was mowed down by A-train. He's gone from being a boy to being man who can now deal with the unfairness of the human dilemma, making the whole series a bildungsroman. Too bitter to be a perfect one, but a little sweet offsets that bitterness just fine.
I was a little disappointed how everything ended, but i'm glad it came to a close. It felt a little longer overall than it needed to be. But it's so hard to find violence and sex heavy comics with an interesting story, that it was all worth it.

Hi Jacium,
You are exactly right, fat loss without weight training only makes you a smaller version of your larger self. That is why I chose BFL to lose body fat because weight training is the only way to transform your body. After several challenges I felt I needed to add some bulk to fill out a bit. So when I said my initial focus was fat loss it wasn't with the absence of weight training but now my focus has changed to adding muscle size.
Up to this point I had only managed to lose inches but by focusing on eating more protein, lifiting heavy with fewer reps I gained an inch around my shoulders and back and an inch in my waist and lost 4lbs of body fat over the last 12 weeks. It is a learning process for sure but I am enjoying the journey.
Best wishes,
The posts here are really providing me with a lot of great info. I am into week 3 of my "modified" BFL. Basically, I'm eating the BFL way (clean x 5 meals as I can't get the last meal in before bedtime). For my workouts, I looked into the MAX-OT workout plan and modified it to fit my needs. Here's the summary:
Mon = Shoulders & Traps
Tue = Biceps & Triceps
Wed = HIIT & Abs
Thu = Legs & Back
Fri = Chest
Sat = HIIT & Abs
Each workout takes about 30-35 minutes. That includes a few sets of 12x reps for warmups + 1 acclimation set (3 reps) followed by 2-3 sets of 4 to 6 reps with heavy weights. If I can lift all sets x 6 reps, I add weight next time and move to the 4 rep range. The timing of this works great for my schedule as I do this in the mornings.
Supplement wise I'm taking 5 g of Creatine powder in a 40g Protien shake immediately after my weight lifting days only.
Nutritionally, I've increased my caloric intake (but very carefully) and am really trying to focus on ingesting more protien rich foods. Might have to go back to tracking calories for a week or two to fine tune this. PS: I have a really good jello/protien powder/ff cream cheese pie that is loaded with protien and empty calories...
I've committed myself to this plan for a 12 week program. At the end, I'll see what I got. I say this because I want to give it time enough to work without chasing rabbits down different trails...
How is it going so far? Well... I can't say for sure that I've put on mass of any sort. The scale says I am up 2 pounds. My body fat calipers (AccuMeasure) say I'm still where I started. My biceps look bigger but that may just be wishful thinking. Remember, I'm 49 (at the dawn of 50 in November) and I've read it's harder for us older folks to put on muscle mass. I'm trying to debunk that....
More as I grow
Hey Jacium,
Could you share the title of the book you use for dumbbell training? I workout at home and have to use dumb bells for alot of my exercises and want any info that can help me change it up where possible.
I have an EzCurl bar and some plate weights (110#) that I use but it's pretty unstable without a bench. Thus, I use DB's and one of those workout ball thingie's as my bench. It really makes me focus on stabilization when lifting...
I love the book "Dumbbell Training for Strength and Fitness" by Matt Brzycki and Fred Fornicola. It concisely covers dozens of lifts, the safety and effectiveness of dumbbells, and some snippets on the history of dumbbells, including use by one of our founding fathers.
from a reply to a post I put in a few months ago.....
Once I discovered the joys of weight training, all other passions were transcended.
I have completed 2 sessions of bfl and after the second I was in the same boat as you are. I started a program called German Volume Training (beginners) It is a very demanding routine but has gotten me very good results, you will eat the same principles as BFL but more, I did gain 9 lbs of muscle and 3 lbs of fat in 55 days, but my shape has changed dramatically. one of the hardest things was to change my attitude about weight gain since i've been fighting the scale for 49 years, look into the program and you will see that its been around for 40 years and is still one of the best. Just make sure you look at the original by Charles Poliquin. Good luck and train hard
I too found myself wanting more muscle after BFL. If you check out my profile of me a few weeks after BFL in the pink bikini (esp back view) you can see how thin I was. I ended up going into what they call a "bulk". I quit doing cardio for 3 months in order to put on muscle. I increased my calories about 500-600, and took creatine + glutamine pre AND post workout. I did end up putting on some fat, but I knew it was needed to put on the muscle so it didn't bother me. I did splits like you posted (minus the HIIT!!!!). I did:
Mon- Chest & biceps
Tues- light legs
Wed- calves, abs, delts
Thurs - Back & tris
Fri - heavy legs
Sat- calves, abs, delts
Sun- off.
Then fast forward to the dark blue suit of me on stage in my profile, that was the results of this bulk. I was soo thrilled! I would do it again in a heart beat. Look into Jamie Eason's LiveFit program on bodybuilding.com. It's great and similar to BFL way of eating in a sense. It's a 12-wk program in phases. First is muscle building (no cardio), then cardio comes in phase 2, and phase 3 shreds you showing what you built. Another free program with all the info online.
Good luck!

I personally LOVE Lee... it brings to mind Robert E. Lee, a gentleman soldier. I'm also one that loves the simplicity... these days so many names are so frilly... it's nice to hear one that's short, manly, and rugged. I imagine this name on a manly, outdoorsy man... And I don't think it's a problem that it's so short. What I love about Lee is that 1. It ages well... it will fit a toddler just as well as a man, 2. It's the anti-trendy, and 3. It's easy to wear (unlike Leopold, imho, which you see fitting only one specific kind of a man).Emiliana Pari (or Valentina Hasti?) Debuts July 2014Soren Pasha, Caspian Bardia

As San Diegans know well, when it gets hot, residents are often asked—sometimes required—to reduce how much water they use to conserve. But should these requirements go further in restricting what people do when it's hot to prevent wildfires?
A New York Times op-ed columnist points to a series of human-caused wildfires in arguing that greater restrictions on human acts could help curb the annual string of wildfires throughout the country, especially Southern California.
"Too often, federal, state and local fire authorities choose to issue 'advisories,' suggesting guidelines for behavior in fire-prone areas rather than doing the tough business of rewriting laws." -- John N. Maclean (Oct. 19, 2012)
Though sometimes harsh penalties come down on negligent individuals—such as four years in prison for a man who sparked a fire while mowing his lawn despite warnings not to do so—more needs to be done, Maclean says.
So what do you think? Do we need tougher laws that restrict what people can do when it's hot to reduce the chances of wildfire?
